Here are some photos of my Byron Corsair that I picked up. It was built without flaps. However, the original builder did a nice job with the build. The retracts with retractable tail wheel work flawlessly. It came with the original Purr Power mount, 4.2 Sachs and the Byron prop hub. I have since remounted the engine and made a new prop hub to use a standard prop. It is now ready for test running of the engine. However at 35 degrees, I'm not willing to play outside at the moment.
This would not have been my first choice of a paint scheme, but I'm not changing it at the moment. Most warbird guys won't like it. It should look good in the air anyway.
